Jiraiya was born in a village called “Konoha” and as a child he was a student of the Third Hokage. His team mates were Orochimaru, and Tsunade, and with the two the trio became or were a part of Team 7. For todays first lesson I will be showing you "how to draw Jiraiya”, and I think you will like what I have done. The only thing I like about Jiraiya is his cool looking appearance. His white hair and his customized head protector, really makes his style pop. Another cool part of his face is the cyan lines that run down his cheeks. Yes I know that he is a peculiar character from the Naruto series, but that doesn't change how he still stood by his village even after he left his people to help the troubles they were having when Orochimaru invaded Konoha. He helped them fight off the intruders, as well as offer protection. After the Third Hokage died, the village needed another. That is when he went on a journey to look for Tsunade so that she can take over and become the Thirds successor. Once he found her, he had to make it clear that if she betrayed the village, he would personally kill her without a doubt. The only reason why he threatened her like that was because he heard that she was mixed up with Orochimaru and his evil schemes. Once Tsunade made it clear that she was still loyal to her village, she accepted the her place as Hokage, and from there Jiraiya became her servant, trusted adviser, and a loyal friend that she can confide in. He also aided her as a personal spy to keep his eyes on the activity of the Akatsuki. As for his abilities, Jiraiya is a Legendary Sannin and the reason why this is so special is because there are only three and he is one of them. He is an incredibly skilled ninja, and he is also proficient with Toad techniques. It's inevitable that you guys will like this tutorial, as well as the way I show you "how to draw Jiraiya, step by step". I will be back momentary with some more drawing fun. Who knows what I will upload next. The only way to find out is to stay tuned in to Dragoart.com. Peace out people and happy drawing!

How to Draw Jiraiya

STEP 1.

Since Jiraiya is in an action pose, you will start this first step by drawing some active looking guidelines. Start with the head and then add the facial lining. Next draw the long arched line for the ponytail, and then draw the stick like framing for his body.

STEP 2.

You will start this step by drawing out the front of his head protector shape, and then the sides of his hair. Once that is done you can move to the next drawing step.

STEP 3.

Now you can start having some drawing fun. Sketch out the wild spiky looking hairstyle that you see here and then draw the shape of his long sharp looking ponytail. Once that is done you can sketch out his eyes, cyan lines, and then his shoulders, arms, and hands.

STEP 4.

Draw the customized symbol on his head protector, and then finish off his face. Next sketch out the left sleeve of his clothing which should come out looking loose fitting. Also finish sketching out his hands and then draw the nap sack roll looking object that he wears strapped on his body. When that is done you can add some detailing and you're done with this step.

STEP 5.

Sketch out the rest of his jacket, and then add the swirl line inside of the nap sack roll. Once that is done you can draw the shirt which is visible on the inside of his clothes. Be sure to have your characters attire look the way they do here.

STEP 6.

Well, you have finally come to the last drawing step. Finish sketching out his pants, and or legs, and then draw the cross hatch design that is done on the lower portion of his legs. Next and lastly, you will need to draw the feet, and wooden sandals. Erase all the guidelines and shapes that you drew in step one.

STEP 7.

All you need to do now is color this Naruto character in, and you just drew Jiraiya, step by step. I had a good time doing this lesson with you all, and I hope you join me next time for more drawing fun.
